    That's sad to hear. Tough state for Sony. Sell online bought by scalpers, sell it to stores who become the scalpers :|

    Indeed. And I confirmed that Mx2 is selling Indian unit at 20k. I called him to ask if the “imported” unit can be used on an Indian account since CE comes with a game code and not disc. He told me it’ll be an Indian unit that’ll be available at 20k so it should work fine. Got further confirmation when the Game Proz seller told me that 1 out of the 3 CE units he had was sold to Mx2.

    I guess these Mx2 guys are selling imported units. 

     

    Previously they were selling the same collector’s edition at 27k. 

    Now as it’s officially launched in India, they reduced the price to 20k. 

    Yeah, I called Mx2 yesterday to see if some discount is possible on CE. He asked me to wait till today since price would be dropping to 20k. On the fence rn but I just might end up buying from them since there’s really not been much news from the bigger sellers about the CE. That Game Proz guy shared screenshot of his conversation with the Sony guy where it was mentioned no more allocation so I’m tempted to believe it

    Damn! Why is it not being advertised in other shops such as ShopatSC and gamestheshop?

     

    Frankly Sony should notice such sellers and dol with et!

    Apparently there were just 50 units in the first (and alleged only) allocation. They went to local retailers according to the guy I spoke to. I’d also spoken to Console Garage when he advertised Regalla for 16.8 and he said there might be a second allocation but now not so sure.

     

    If it doesn’t show up at ShopAtSC, I might just buy from Mx2. I wanted to get it from Amazon US itself and it would have cost that much so getting it for 12.5 would have been a bonus for me.

    I am inclined to belive these guys took preorders only for unit allocation from Sony, and are now refunding and scalping the allotted units.

     

    Let's see how many of these retailers actually sell the CE for the mrp. I doubt most will.

    Highly likely. He was quick to tell me that imported piece will be available for 20-23k. Hopefully, like @Vamossaid, ShopAtSC gets official stock

    This dude was taking preorders on whatsapp. Damn.

    Exactly. He took mine. Then said it’s sorted. Then said allocation issue so he’s requested more units. Then said allocations are over and that there are no more units coming. Refunded money. Then mentioned imported unit will cost 20-23k.

    You’ll get it easily from ShopatSc soon. 
     

    They will have maximum units available as it’s launching here officially. 

    Is it? The seller I was talking to said Sony told him no more units are being officially imported/allocated. But I'll check ShopAtSc and hopefully they have an official launch

    CtrlAltDev93's Series of unfortunate events . . . :P

    Why not just wait until you had the collectors edition in your hand before selling the special edition ?!

    the seller full on confirmed everything and said it's sorted. should have waited but I guess hindsight is 20/20

    Burn in for static images does happen in oled. We used it with a set top box for a year and a half it’s been more than a year now since we stopped using set top box but I can see the set top box company’s logo when the screen is fully white. So yeah be careful with static images other than that it’s all good.

    Only OTT and gaming so I guess I'm safe on that front

    Don't worry, man. LG gives 1 time panel replacement if burn in happens. They don't cover it as part of warranty but it's covered. Also burn in is not a concern on the new panels unless you use it completely irresponsibly. Anyone owning C9 or above can confirm that burn in is non existent. 

    Oh, cool. I don't plan on hooking it up to a PC or set-top box so that avoids most of the static image worries. i'll just ensure that I don't leave games on the pause screen too long with the TV on then.

    Just curious how many years of warranty did you get? 1 or 3? Any idea on what type of warranty it is? i.e. comprehensive warranty / does the warranty cover burn-in issues?

    3 years comprehensive warranty + 1 year insurance included in the price. Yes, the warranty covers burn-in issues

    Reviews for WF1000XM4 ? If anybody used them after XM3s, any substantial difference ? 

    How's the fit and comfort ? 

    I can get them for nearly 15k. Worth the price ?

    I loved the ANC and sound quality. But I developed tinnitus after using them so had to sell them. Never had the problem with XM3 but it apparently was an issue with those too. YMMv but this seems to be a prevalent issue.

     

    Edit: nvm I realised you’re talking about the in-ears and not the cans. Sony needs a better naming scheme for the headphones as well as TV’s smh

    New players who never played a souls game in their life getting this game and they're too liking it. New soulsborn!! 

     

    Facts. Never liked souls type games but I’m very tempted to jump in after seeing the reception this game is getting.

    Congrats bro ! You'll love the PQ, and WebOS is really good. 

    Thank you! Parents are wondering why I’m so excited to go back to office after seeing me WFH like a lazy sloth the past 2 years. Little do they know that it’s the gaming set up I’ve got planned that’s really keeping me motivated. :dance:
     

    Gotta start looking at soundbars after I recover from this purchase a bit

    Afaik, the entire amount is debited from your account/CC at once and then credited back, this is a verification measure and then you get the charge-slip then and there. Followed by first EMI debit after a few days.

    Not sure how the booking amount and then the slip system will work.

     

    Anyway, make sure you check the TV for any signs of it being a demo unit.

    Yeah, they took 6k. They'll reduce that from the price when they bill the item on my card. I'm currently not in Bangalore and I needed it delivered on the 24th (moving back to Bangalore after 2 years), so they took a booking amount to confirm the purchase.  I'll visit the store on the day of and check the TV for any signs of it being a demo unit. Thanks for the heads up!
